60s Museum

What comes to mind when we think of the 60s? This youthfulness of our grandparents, Gagarin, thaw, plate "Melody" rare "Beatles", "the same" tea Ascension poems, songs Edita Piekha ...

... And, of course, Khrushchev.

Phenomena forever past age, a country that no longer exists still strike a chord and kind smile to people born in the new Russia. What do we know about the life of the sixties? And the most interesting question - where do we know?

- Touch, do not be afraid! This is no ordinary museum, everything can be touched by hands - smiling boy youngest caretaker that you can imagine - '60s Museum ».
- I do not even know what it is and how it works! - Meets a guy looking unpretentious device - cleaner "Buran".



These things can only be found in a museum or in the thrifty grandmothers, they come from childhood and therefore cause tenderness in young Russians. Museum with bagatelles Soviet life - only a small part of what can be found on the last Saturday of September on a large-scale art objects "Hruschevka.net." The project attracted to one of the hundreds of yards of Moscow Muscovites who one day become parties to the 1960 renovation. 19 art venues, tours, interactive, old movies, poems and even a fashion show - delight visitors throughout the day.

Venue unusual event was chosen by chance. Despite the massive demolition of "Khrushchev", the very first five-storey building is still standing in the same place - on the street near the subway Greenan Academic. Surprisingly, on average, for the erection of a Khrushchev took only 12 days. Once Leningrad team set a record by erecting a house for five days! You can imagine what these were of questionable quality "skorostroyki" ... However, hardly anyone thought then about the quality when each first Soviet hunky dreamed of a separate apartment, albeit with a tiny kitchen - but her! For a country that's been such a breakthrough, and Beacon Hill - now the territory of the Academic Area - were a symbol of mass industrial building of the Union. This is reflected in art. For example, as we learned on Saturday, Dmitri Shostakovich dedicated Khruschovka whole operetta - "Moscow - Beacon Hill»:

Guests of "Khrushchev" had from the very beginning to plunge into the atmosphere of the 60s, it was those kind and naive that we had imagined. Minimum program - from the morning mass charging in the yard. You can eat a milkshake for the coin to embody itself, rosy-cheeked, on the old films, while the rostrum artist reads "Favorites" Bella Akhmadullina, go to your favorite sound «Let It Be» vocal-instrumental ensemble "The Beatles" and stumble upon a rare radiogram, to cry remembering grandparents, printed on real Soviet typewriter history of their acquaintance, cheer yourself up by manufacturer colorful poppies on the technique of "Tai Dai." To hold his hand over the glossy dream of the sixties - the Volga GAZ-22 smile back janitor, meet new visitors. And come up with a "Khrushchev" with a slight feeling of sadness on forever bygone era, the signs of which can now be found only in a museum.



After this "immersion" I immediately wanted to call her grandmother. Call as often as possible.
